Episode 113 Katherine 'Kat' Hammontre April, 2019 was a tough month for 68 year old Katherine 'Kat' Hammontre. She had battled liver Cancer, but eventually decided not to seek treatment for it, and to face what came on her own terms. She was looking forward to her one year anniversary with her husband Warren Sundquist and enjoying the life she was living in San Felipe, Baja California, Mexico, where she had moved to in the late 1990s. On April 11, Kat along with her husband, and a group of hikers decided to explore the beautiful area of Cañón del Diablo, or Devils Canyon in the Sierra de San Pedro Mártir National Park, near San Felipe in Baja California. Warren and another man stayed down near the entrance to the trail, while Kat and the other hikers made their way up to see the waterfalls. That day, Kat had brought along her dog; Tootsie. On her way up the trail, Kat, who had injured her foot not long before the outing, stopped to rest on her own with Tootsie while the other hikers finished their climb. She planned to meet the group when they came back down. Later, when the group came back down, there was no sign of Kat or Tootsie. When the group made it down to Warren, he was shocked to find his wife was missing. Extensive searches of the area turned up no signs of Kat or Tootsie, and today, she remains missing. Kat's daughter Desiree, who is our guest in this episode, made her way to the area to join the efforts in finding her mom. She desperately wants to know what happened to her mom, and bring her home so that she can give her a proper farewell. If you have information in Kat's case, please contact Mexican authorities; State Civil Protection 686-555-4998 ' To learn more about Kat's case, visit the Facebook page set up by her daughter Desiree; Katherine is still missing To listen to every episode of Missing Persons early, and ad-free, and get other benefits, simply visit our channel page on Apple Podcasts to get started with an AbJack Insider subscription.

Nine-year-old Melodee Buzzard disappeared from Vandenberg Village where she lived in Lompoc, California. The case has left investigators and family searching for answers and this episode reconstructs the official timeline, down to the white Chevy Malibu rental on Oct. 7th, to a license-plate swap and a confirmed Oct. 9 sighting near the Colorado–Utah border. Let's talk about the homeschool-study process that delayed reporting and explore some mental-health and behavioral possibilities, all whiile we try to understand why California officials havent filed charges in hopes the mother will produce the missing child. Then, with eirie dejavu, let's draw a procedural parallel to the Lori Vallow Daybell case—showing how court orders to produce a child might change everything.

Living our true identity requires faith-driven action. It takes courage to refuse the labels of others, or the false identities we've embraced as a matter of survival. People and institutions will always try to conform us into something they can label, pigeonhole, and dismiss. When we choose to trust God's revealed identity for us, we choose courage.

On the morning of January 24, 2025, 39-year-old Heather Caras disappeared from her home in Linton, North Dakota. When she stepped outside, her two teenage sons were still at home. One of her sons later recalled that Heather said she was going to start her vehicle, but she never came back. This was out of character for Heather, who was known to be a devoted and protective mother, given that both of her boys have special needs. When she didn't return, one of the boys walked to school to sound the alarm that something was wrong. The next day, Heather's truck was found at Beaver Bay, about fifteen miles west of Linton. The scene there was strange: a set of footprints leading away from the vehicle, then abruptly ending, and a pair of shoes neatly placed in the snow.In the days that followed, few clues emerged. Then came a statement from law enforcement claiming that Heather had “left her family and the area willingly with the assistance of an unknown acquaintance and was not known to be in any danger.” To those who knew Heather best, that theory wasn't just out of character; it was unthinkable.As we were preparing to cover Heather's disappearance, news broke in late May that human remains had been found not far from Beaver Bay. They were later confirmed to be Heather's remains, but the autopsy results left those who knew and loved her with even more questions than answers. If you have any information about the disappearance or death of Heather Caras, please contact the Emmons County Sheriff's Office at 701-254-4411.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

When the “Letters from Chad” project launched in September 2025, convicted killer Chad Daybell tried to rebrand himself as a persecuted prophet, writing from his death row cell in Idaho, preaching innocence between the lines. But the words that were supposed to save his image did something else entirely. They exposed him. Let's walk through the full timeline of these letters, when they began, what he said, and why they suddenly stopped. We'll talk about the psychology behind Chad's need to control the narrative, how narcissistic offenders weaponize faith, and what this silence really means for his legal strategy and his psyche.Because make no mistake about the silence. It isn't a sign of redemption, it's a moment of recalibration. And when the next “revelation” comes, it'll be scripted, strategic, and manipulative. We'll also examine how his words impact the families of JJ Vallow, Tylee Ryan, Tammy Daybell, and Charles Vallow and why the world should never forget that behind his spiritual spin lies real human tragedy. Then I'll share why I believe Chad's personality won't allow him to stay silent. The prophet may be grounded for now—but he's still trying to fly that same broken plane.#ChadDaybell #LoriVallow #LoriDaybell #TammyDaybell #JJVallow #TyleeRyan #CharlesVallow #AlexCox #EmmaMurray #DaybellLetters #DoomsdayCult #IdahoMurders #TrueCrime #DeathRow #Profiling #Psychology #Narcissist #Faith #Fraud #JusticeForJJ #JusticeForTylee #JusticeForTammy #CourtTV #LawAndCrime #DoomsdayProphet #LettersFromChad #Idaho #Cult=======================================Order Wolves in Sheep's Clothing now! https://www.profilingevil.com/wolvesOrder Deceived, An Investigative Memoir of the Zion Society Cult.

On Sunday June 17, 2024, Jay Slater, a 19-year-old bricklayer’s apprentice who lived in Lancashire, England was on his first ever foreign holiday. And he seemed to be having a blast. He had gone to the island of Tenerife in Spain with a female friend named Lucy and a guy named Brad. That night he and Lucy went out to a music festival called New Rave Generation. It was held at Papagayo Beach Club, along a strip called Veronica’s Strip that has a ton of nightclubs and neon signs. It was there he met two British men and somehow they made a plan to go on to their Airbnb. The next morning, Lucy got one last frantic call from Jay just after 8 am, saying he was lost, didn’t know where he was, and was panicked. He never showed up again. So was Jay kidnapped and murdered, did he wander off into the wilderness or did something else happen to him? This case is wild. It has exposed the seedy underside of this island and the criminal underworld that are operating there, including drug lords and mobsters dubbed the timeshare killers. And everyone from police detectives to psychics and TikTok stars have descended on this tiny island in the Canaries to find a young man who was partying and vanished without a trace right in the middle of an island full of tourists.

This episode first aired on October 31, 2022. On September 30, 1994, 20-year-old Jarrod Green disappeared from Searcy, Arkansas. That night, he told his family he had plans to meet someone. During a phone call with his girlfriend, he sounded upset but refused to explain what was wrong. Earlier that week, Jarrod had retrieved a gun he had previously loaned to a friend, saying he needed it for protection. He never made it home and was never seen or heard from again.A few days later, Jarrod's car was found abandoned in the parking lot of a local store. The doors were unlocked, the windows were rolled down, and the keys were on the floor. His disappearance quickly went cold. His family heard little from law enforcement and felt as though the case had been forgotten.Over time, disturbing stories began to circulate. Less than a year later, another person connected to Jarrod vanished. Another reportedly took his own life after confessing to being involved in Jarrod's death. Years later, a group of new detectives decided to reexamine the case, and for the first time in decades, there was movement.If you have any information about the disappearance of Jarrod Green, please contact the Searcy Police Department at (501) 268-3531.You can follow developments in Jarrod's case on Facebook at Justice for Jarrod.

October 12th, 1964. Washington, D.C. Mary Meyer was murdered while taking a walk along the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal towpath. The police quickly arrested a man named Ray Crump who was near the crime scene. But Crump's arrest and trial didn't answer the many questions surrounding Mary's murder.

Life in Olympia wasn't always easy for Whitney, and the distance made it hard for her family to know what was going on in her day-to-day life. Still, they stayed connected, and her family could always count on hearing from her.Then, in October of 2019, the calls from Whitney stopped. Her family reached out to friends in Olympia who went to look for her, but it was as if Whitney had vanished without a trace. No one seemed to know where she had gone or why. When Whitney was reported missing to the Olympia Police Department, their search yielded few answers, and the questions only grew heavier with time. In the years that followed, new information surfaced that raised even more concern. Other women in the same area, with circumstances similar to Whitney's, had been victimized, leading investigators to consider whether her disappearance might be connected to something much darker.Six years later, Whitney's loved ones are still waiting for answers. They hope that by sharing her story, someone out there might remember seeing or hearing something that could finally bring them closer to finding her.If you have any information regarding the disappearance of Whitney Wilken, please contact the Olympia Police Department. For urgent or time-sensitive tips, call 911 or the non-emergency line at (360) 704-2740.

On January 23, 1999, 2-year-old Teekah Lewis vanished from New Frontier Lanes bowling alley in Tacoma, Washington. That night, Teekah was there with her mother, Theresa, and several other relatives. She was playing in the arcade when her mother briefly looked away to bowl. When Theresa turned back, Teekah was gone. Panic set in as family members searched every corner of the building, hoping she had simply wandered out of sight, but Teekah was nowhere to be found. Police were called, and despite extensive searches, no trace of Teekah surfaced.Witnesses offered only fragments of clues. One recalled a maroon Pontiac speeding out of the parking lot around the time Teekah disappeared. Another described a suspicious man inside the bowling alley who had followed a child toward an exit that evening. He was able to give a detailed description of the man, including that he had a pockmarked face. Then, more accounts emerged of unsettling incidents involving children at or around New Frontier Lanes, raising the possibility that the bowling alley and the surrounding neighborhood may have been used as a hunting ground by a predator or predators. For decades, those scraps of information were all investigators and Teekah's family had to go on, but in 2025, Teekah's case finally began to gain momentum. Through it all, Teekah's mother has never stopped searching for answers. Theresa has worked tirelessly to keep her daughter's story alive for nearly 27 years, clinging to the hope that someone may have taken Teekah to raise as their own, a far easier thought than the darker alternatives. Today, she wants what any mother in her position would: the truth about what happened to her little girl, and the chance to bring her home.If you have any information about the disappearance of Teekah Lewis, please contact the Tacoma Police Department at 253-287-4455 or the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children at 1-800-THE-LOST.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In late February of 2024, 46-year-old Samantha Tolbert vanished from Carroll County, Georgia, a rural area in western Georgia, along the Alabama state line. At first, Samantha's absence didn't raise an alarm. She kept in touch with her daughter, but it wasn't unusual for some time to pass between calls. That all changed on March 7, 2024, when deputies from the Carroll County Sheriff's Office responded to a call in Tyus, a small community in Carroll County. There, they discovered Samantha's ex-husband was deceased. What stood out immediately was that the vehicle he had driven to the scene wasn't his; it was Samantha's truck, but she was nowhere to be found.Investigators attempted to contact Samantha because she was the registered owner of the vehicle, but all efforts to reach her were unsuccessful. Friends and family they contacted said they hadn't heard from her either. In that moment, the troubling truth came into focus: not only was Samantha's ex-husband dead, but Samantha herself was missing. Suddenly, two stories collided, one ending in death, the other vanished. With Samantha's ex-husband no longer alive, investigators were left with a haunting mystery: what really happened in those final days, and what secrets did he take with him?If you have any information about the disappearance of Samantha Tolbert, please contact Investigator Amber Cardell with the Carroll County Sheriff's Office at 770-830-5916 or email acardell@carrollsheriffga.gov.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
